    ok so the other day my car died and its giving me a missfire code.
    so I changed the coil packs spark plugs and the Ecm and still the car wont Idle.
    it will start only if i give it some gas. as soon as I let off the gas it will chug and missfire.

    now the ECM came from my other grand prix so I know its good.
    the new spark plug are AC delco iridium-tipped
    the new coils are BWD along with the plug wires
    ive checked the grounds on the motor and the battery and the one under the ECM mounting plate.
    what am I missing?

    Unplug your MAF sensor and see if your car will start.

    What shape are your plug wires in? You mentioned changing the plugs and coils, but not the wires.

    You mean ICM? Cause there's no mounting plate for the ECM.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
